In 2017 he gained his MSc in Orthopaedic Engineering from Cardiff University and his ongoing commitment to his own education is demonstrated by the fact that he is currently studying for the British Society for Hand Surgery Diploma in Hand Surgery. He is also active in the teaching and mentoring of junior surgeons, holds the post of the educational lead for orthopaedics at Broomfield Hospital for students from Anglia Ruskin University and Queen Mary University of London, as well as being an Advanced Trauma Life Support (ATLS) instructor at The Royal College of Surgeons of England. He has been widely published in academic and professional publications, and presented frequently at medical conferences in the UK and overseas.
